Overview

 

  • Pixel-level accuracy: powerful depth/distance measurement.
  • Large working range: 2m/4m optional, and a 10-meter broader coverage with our cable extension kit.
  • Outdoor usable: No worry of interferences from ambient light.
  • Any MV library works: 3 languages applicable. C, C++ or Python
  • Affordable decency: 3D imaging with primed point clouds at an unexpectedly low cost.

Overview

A Time of Flight camera module featuring a MIPI-CSI 2 connection and offering up to 4-meter measuring range with sub-2cm precision, designed and optimized exclusively for Raspberry Pi & Nvidia Jetson boards.

 

Note: Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye is required for this camera (04/04/2022 or later releases), a fresh install is highly recommended.

 

Quick sum-up about the camera:
